Hello.

Which cleric or wizard "buff" spells have cumulative effect?

Did you check the manual?
I'm sure about one spell, the 3th level (or 2nd) spell Blur, that gives you an AC and saving throws bonus. Multiple Blurs stack so you can get your AC down by 2 or 3.

IIRC the same was true for Armor of Faith but I think the official patch fixed that.

Spooky2 - do you mean spells which stack with each other? Or spells which stack with iterations of themselves?

If each other, then all of the protection spells and buff spells stack - Haste, Chant, Prayer, Defensive Harmony, Prot vs Petrification, etc.

However two castings of Spirit Armour should not stack (if they do, it is actually a bug), and so on.

Cheers,

Yes I checked the manual. Only Second level priest spell "Chant" is described as non cumulative.

I meant spell like Bless if it is possible to cast it severel times then I get not just +1( saving throws against fear,.. )but +2 or +3 if I cast it three times.

Then, as Coot says, that's a negatory lil buddy! :D
